Wabash College Events

National Voter Registration Day is a national holiday celebrating our democracy. It was first observed in 2012 and has been growing in popularity every year since. In preparation for the 2018 elections, The Wabash College Democrats and the Wabash College Republicans have paired with the Montgomery County League of Women's Voters to help the Wabash community register to vote. Join us on Tuesday, September 26th from 11:30 AM - 1 PM on the steps of Sparks to make sure everyone has the opportunity to vote.

Thanks to a grant, the Modern Languages Department is happy to announce a Spanish Film Festival of five films to be shown, one each week for five weeks from September 5th to October 3rd.

Red Gringo (9/26) Spanish with English Subtitles

Reminiscent of Searching for Sugarman, director Miguel Ángel Vidaurre’s self-described “pop memory exercise” follows North American singer Dean Reed’s surprising and unlikely political transformation after learning of the brutality and repression of U.S.-supported regimes in South America. Born in Lakewood, Colorado, Reed attempted to conquer the American music industry with his voice and charisma. His songs found modest success in the U.S. but became massive hits in Latin America. In 1962, with hopes of cashing in on his international popularity, Reed tours South America, where he undergoes a political awakening that earned him the nickname “The Red Elvis.”
